NFL SET UP: Cowboys vs. Green Bay – When Will the Cheating Start?

January 7th, 2015 Bad Brad

By David Stillwell

Following the January 4, 2015 game between the Cowboys and the Lions where critical mistakes by NFL Refs lead to the Cowboy’s victory over the Detroit Lions. Foul! There have been plenty of experts, outside of the NFL who has reviewed the tapes, and fostered opinions that the Ref responsible for picking up the flag for pass interference was wrong. Big deal, bad calls happen all of the time. However, it is more than just a bad call? Many people seem to think it is, especially after the VIP of Officiating was caught partying on the Cowboy’s owners party bus. At the very least that is bad form; but what if…

What if the two incidents are connected?

The upcoming game between the Cowboys and the Packers should provide the only opportunity this season to see if the Cowboys bought their way into the finals. This game is do-or-die, just like the last game. Win or go home crying. Well, last game they did not go home crying, though their ascension is questionable.

• Green Bay is ranked better than the Cowboys.

• Their PF score is higher than the Cowboys, meaning that Green Bay made more passes for their team.

• The Green Bay PA score is lower than that of the Cowboys, meaning that the Cowboys created more points against themselves.
